The State of ES5 on the Web

TL;DR:

  • Many websites are (unintentionally) shipping ES6+ code in production. This indicates that transpiling to ES5 is outdated practice.
  • We need a better baseline for transpilation, which should be a moving target.
  • We should transpile code in node_modules, at least for production.
